SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Everything with the Tories is , "great." They had a "great Conservative dinner ' at Northampton on Friday last, at which the chair was taken by one who, from his language, may not uncharitably be pronounced a great fool, if he has been correctly reported in the Times. "He contended, that if it were not for the House of Lords, the Protestants of Ireland would have been handed over to the tender mercies of another Irish massacre." And this is the sort of language that Tory Chairmen dare to address to the poor deluded fools that partake of their feeds. We do not quarrel with the opinion entertained by this or any other weak man of the merits of the House of Lords ; but we contend that it reflects disgrace on the assembled Tory gentlemen who heard this in famous aspersion that they did not instantly protest against it. They know that it is a foul calumny to charge the Catholics with harbouring any idea of massacreing their fellow -countrymen. Why then charge the Catholics with harbouring any such wicked design, if they do not wish to excite the mem bers of the two religions to acts of vengeance and bloodshed ? At the Northampton, as at the Ludlow dinner, Mr. Buckingham passes for a great authority in favour of Tory excellency. Mr. Charles Ross was quite full of the sayings of the Hon. Member for Sheffield. What did Mr. Buckingham say of the Tories ? " Why, that they were courteous ; that they practised what they professed ; that they were faithful to each other, and were grateful for the support they received." After this the Tories are bound to be grateful to Mr. Buckingham.—Morning Chronicle. The Northamptonshire Conservative meeting, re ported in our paper of Saturday last, ought to be looked upon as of high example, and cheering encouragement to that cause which involves the timely salvation of the Briti:;11 empire. The return of four Conservative mem bers for the two divisions of Northamptonshire was, in the truest sense of the word, a popular return, being effected by the independent gentry and yeomanry aeainst a powerful and concentrated oligarchy of Whig Lords, amongst whom are to be found the names of Spencer, Fitzwilliam, and Northampton. A perverse and spiteful oligarchy on one side, and a reckless and revolutionary rabble on the other, having formed an unholy league against the free exercise of the Regal powers, and of the political rights of property, can be met no otherwise so effectually as by a counteracting union of independent and otherwise unconnected men, round whose necks the cord of faction has never yet been twisted—men who neither sympathize with a coterie of selfish Lords, dividing among themselves and their relations all the most lucrative and respon sible offices under the Crown ; nor with the turbulent and untaught thousands, who see no possibility of losing, but every chance of winning, by a convulsion the most violent and sweeping, what they have not patience or virtue to seek by more lawful means—viz., a fixed stake and possession in their country. The meeting at Northampton was composed o f p ersons set ting at defiance the former branch of the above unna tural confederates, and holding the latter portion of them in abhorrence. It is true that, irresistibly as the Conservative principle has spread throughout North ampton town and county, nothing more can be done in one respect than has already been realised for, both by the return of Conservative members of Parliament, and the exclusion of wretched Ministerial adherents. But in other respects we can accomplish a great deal more by meetings such as this. There may, through the cul tivation of the Conservative sentiment, be produced, not merely a sufficiency, but an excess of constitu tional votes—not merely the Whig-Radical force on the hustings may be again overpowered, but the Whig-Radical feeling throughout society may be crashed, and the redundant strength of Conservatism may overflow upon other counties. Besides the dis play of property and character observable at the meet ing of last Thursday, the talent with which the great cause was supported ought not to be forgotten. It is a common-place excuse of the Whig Ministers for going with O'Connell a certain length in his attacks upon the Church of Ireland, that they " will stop at the point which it would in their opinion be wrong to transgress, and that they are not answerable for the extravagance or criminality of his intentions." Upon this point Mr. Cartwright made an apposite quotation from the recorded language of Horne Tooke, and a striking allusion to a commentary upon Tooke's words by the late Mr. Coleridge. Horne Tooke had said, that if some of his friends were inclined to go in their road of reform as far as Slough, he who could not proceed so far would nevertheless accompany them to Hounslow. Upon which Coleridge very pithily asks, " Should I be justified in walking arm in arm to Hounslow with a man who was going to commit a rob bery at Slough ?" Now, Lord Melbourne gives a dif ferent answer to the question from any that the keen moral sense of Coleridge had anticipated. The Whig Prime Minister marches a good deal more than to Hounslow with O'Connell; for his Lordship makes him a present of the appropriation clause—the very instru ment with which O'Connell avows his design of com mitting a wholesale robbery on the church of Ireland ! Mr. Maunseil, in an energetic and eloquent speech, described the established church as the rock on which our free and noble Constitution rested, and eulogized the House of Lords for the glorious and triumphant stand it had made in defence of our most sacred rights and institutions. Sir Charles Knightley took occasion to signalize and applaud the services which had been rendered by the Conservative press to the best interests of the country ; but though neither on account of cur Conservative colleagues nor of ourselves do we affect to be indifferent to the approbation of honourable men, we must remind Sir Charles Knightley that the real force of our exertions lies in the truth and ma jesty of the cause which we aspire to vindicate ; that if we were to put forth doctrines, or to recommend measures which were not faithfully responded to by the English mind, all our efforts would be vain and illusory—our exhortations would be poured into an empty sieve, and our most laboured appeals to the na tional spirit would be treated with scorn like others that we wot of, as the mercenary trickery of sophists, knaves, and traitors.—Times. Without any cause, personal or political, of grati tude or affection towards Lord Brougham other than that feeling of admiration and sympathy which every mind not sunk into the lowest depths of baseness enter tains for great intellectual power, we may express, in the full assurance that we do but re-echo the general voice of the community, our sincere satisfaction and delight that the bodily health, and with it the fine mental faculties, of the Noble and Learned Lord are perfectly restored. Upon such an occasion these are natural and healthy feelings, and we should indulge them even although we could only share them in common with the mean, selfish, ungrateful, and un :English party now in possession of power. Happily, however, we are exempt from the mortification andthe misgivings which such extra ordinar y community of sen timent could not fail to produce ; and we do not hesitate to acknowledge that we rejoice the more freely and heartily ,at Lord Brougham's restoration because we perceive,b y symptoms the most unequivocal, that this circumstance, upon which it might have been expected that the joy of the Melbourne Ministry and its partisans would have been more exuberant than ours, has had no other effect upon them than of exciting dismay, vexa tion, and chagrin, to a degree which admits of no con cealment, and sets the most practised hypocrisy at de fiance. The Whig-Radical Ministers, or which we take to be the same thing, their unanimous organs of the press, speaking at their suggestion and by their in structions, intimate in a manner not to be misunder stood, that they regard the recovery from dangerous disease of the only man of extraordinary talents and endowments who at the present day is suspected of at iachment to their party as a party calamity. This is st.range; but, to the disgrace, we will not say of hu man nature, but of Whig-Radical nature, it is not more strange than true. The man who shed upon the Whig-Radical party whatever of light and lustre has ever illumined or adorned their dark and dreary ranks —the man whose vigour and activity of rnind contri buted more than any other cause, or than all other ,causes put together, to open to them the way to political power—the man who brought to their aid, for he alone a,,oft;tlwpfity was capable of doing so, a large propor • Df the Commons of England—this man has - Out .. ",a lingering sickness, which threatened to *ti ve ,.tat4l3.aa\the Whig-Radical Ministers or their special friends, the partakers and expectants of their official bounty, are the only persons in the United Kingdom who receive the intelligence with sullen ()loom and spiteful dissatisfaction. The former col leagues of Lord Brougham, having previously cast cast away all that are generous, or powerful, or re spectable of their number, have shown themselves in capable of witnessing his re-appearance upon the po litical scene with so much as even a decent show of welcome. All their savings and doings intimate with , out disguise how glad they would have been that he should come there no more. The Conservatives do justice, upon this occasion, to the talent and spirit of the Noble and Learned Lord—for Conservatives can do justice even to their political enemies ; and the Ministerialists raise the cry of interested artifice and cunning. The genuine and straightfor ward Radicals exult in the anticipated accession of his Lordship to their ranks ; and the suspicious, feeble, and terrified Ministerialists utter a loud shriek of terror, as if conscious that their darling places are in danger. The Edinburgh Radicals cannot offer Lord Brougham, on his restoration to health, the civility of a dinner without being told by the Ministerial Morning Chronicle that it is "not altogether satis fied," or without being beseeched " not to allow them selves to be led by arts or intrigues from what is useful to the common cause." " Tait's Magazine" cannot pay his Lordship the common-place tribute of an occa sional eulogy without being reminded by the Ministe rial Examiner of what would scarcely be worth re collecting even if it were true, which it is not, namely, that once upon a time, in the city of Edinburgh, " Lord Durham rose up as the champion of Reform, and crushed the advocate of the drag-chain'—over whelmed the then courtier Chancellor with the rebukes of truth and justice !" We might adduce other illus trations, if it were necessary, of the low-minded and malignant jealousy—of the pitiful and odious rancour —which the recovery of Lord Brougham has awak ened in the breasts of the present Ministers and their tools. But we could not produce a better. The party which talks of Lord Durham having crushed and overwhelmed Lord Brougham must needs be in the last feeble agony of ineffectual malice. Our satisfac tion on the recovery of Lord Brougham is entirely in dependent of party considerations, unless it may, per adventure, have acquired a tinge of that complexion from our intimate and constant persuasion that what ever especially vexes and frightens the people now in power (as this event evidently does) is likely to prove beneficial to the country. We shall be glad to see this eminent person once more in the House of Lords, even although his Radicalism should, as the Ministe rial party fear, be more consistent, intelligible , and dis interested than theirs. It will be something to have one antagonist in the Upper House of Parliament not altogether unworthy of the vigorous arms and well tempered weapons of the Conservative champions. But we confess that we see no strong reason to be lieve that Lord Brougham, in the new career upon which lie is about to enter, will be the thorough going Radical the present half-and-half men affect to apprehend. Since Lord Brougham's temporary secession from public life, the state and visible cha racter of parties have undergone much change—a change which of necessity dissolves all pre-existing political connections had there been any left to hamper time Noble Lord, and imperatively calls upon a man, situated as his Lordship is, to re-consider the princi ples upon which he has acted heretofore, with a view to the application to the new circumstances of the times. That change in public affairs, and in the visible position, character, and objects of political parties which has been sufficient to detach from their former colleagues such honourable and intelligent statesmen as Lord Stanley, Lord Ripon, the Duke of Richmond, and Sir James Graham—that change which has been sufficient to make Earl Grey stand aloof from his former colleagues in their utmost need, although his son remains in their ranks—that change which has been sufficient to decide the issue of every contested election in England in favour of the Conservative body in the State, to which the most able and respectable members of Lord Grey's Administration now belong, may not have been without its natural and proper effect upon the searching and capacious mind of Lord Brougham. To whatever party in the State his Lordship may determine to unite himself, lie will unquestionably be an important acquisition. The Ra dicals are striving to enlist him. The Ministerialists, knowing full well that with them he cannot be, are labouring with their usual sense of honesty and grati tude to discredit and defame him. The Conservatives regard the paltry game played by these two parties with curiosity, but without solicitude. They acknow ledge that Lord Brougham might be a valuable auxi liary to their ranks, but they are neither so weak nor so humble as to feel any undue anxiety respecting the course which any single individual, however distin guished, may think proper to pursue.—Morning Post. The Russian character of Louis Philippe's Cabinet is daily exhibiting the natural and necessary workings of its Russian construction. We have already laid before our readers sufficient proofs that it was patched together, after an intentional delay, for this especial object. If we were, indeed, deficient in the proofs of the inclinations, as well as the intentions, of the new French Cabinet, modelled in pliant subserviency to its master's wishes, which daily and hourly multiply upon our hands—we need look no farther, and point to no other indication, than the ultimatum of the French Government to Switzerland, and signed by the Dukc de Montebello, which will be found in last Thurs- day's Advertiser. The atrocious design of excom municating the transit of liberal opinions into France, by the hermetic blockade of Switzerland, is there not only avowed, but threatened instanter with all the reckless profligacy of irresponsible power. The baseness and the cowardice implied by the menace of this atrocious document—which rivals the fulminations of Pilnitz, and disgraces the hereditary lustre of the name of Montebello—is fully commen surate to the arrogant impudence of its tone of unprin cipled digression. It is an outrage offered by a strong power to a weak—calculating on the inadequacy of the other to resist. It is an outrage offered to justice by injustice—calculating on the incoSpetency of the former to redress itself, and defying the natural conse quences of cause and effect—.by which in the long run retribution and injustice are certain to be ultimately chained together. The treachery and cowardice of this document are indeed more prominent character istics of its revolting physiognomy than selfishness, arrogance, or audacity. It says, in words to this effect, to the Swiss Confederation, "We would at once crush you, if we dared—we would extinguish at once, if we dared, the sparks of liberty which still burn on the altar of William Tell's birth-place, in order that they may not communicate a flame to the dry, rotten, and withered branches of the tree of liberty in benighted France. But this political sacrilege we dare not openly commit ; our power is wanting, though our will is good. We will, how ever, by stimulating attention to your alleged enormities against despotic thrones, draw down upon your heads the crushing weight of those combined powers of des potism which we dare not individually employ. " We will not hurt you ourselves," as said the saintly and Cowardly hyp ocr it e t o th e o ff en di ng dog , " but we will call y ou mad, and thereby provoke others to torture and h unt you down." Such is the character of this nefari ous document ; but our readers must have been doubly prepared, both for its appearance and its com position ; partly by our strictures, which appeared a month ago (Septembe r 5, and 13), on the subject of the instructions published in the September Number ,—and pa r tl y f rom the curious evidences we o f t h e Portfolio, fr om the Russian Cabinet to M. de private sour ces of the highest authenticity, g S a c v v e e r ic n o of the Russian structure of the French Cabinet, and of l l the determination of Louis Philippe t o b rea k awa y th e ca join the matu r in g armament ble of the of theua dr Holyupletreaty, ian c e against the movement A and principle of European liberty. The document we refer to was addressed to M. de Severin, when entering on his functions as envoy of Russia, to the Swiss con federation. As we stated at the time, there is not a line of it which is not as applicable to the present posture of affairs in Switzerland, as when it was first concocted in that nursery of mischief, the bureau o f Russia's Foreign Ministry'. There is not a line of it which does not pour the strongest ray of illustration on the actuating motive of the Duke de Montebello's ultimatum, and on the prime and real mover of that nefarious demonstration.—Mornino. Advertiser. As far as appearances indicate, it seems to be evi dently the intention of Ministers not to assemble Par lianient before February. For this, though they have, we admit, ample precedent, they have equal proof of inconvenience in the hurried dog-day legislation to which it leads. Nothing appears to be more obvious or convenient than that Parliament should assemble about the time the Law Courts meet. Taken even in that point of view only, it is fitting that the House of Lords, the High Court of Appeal, should be acces sible when and as long as the other Courts are, espe cially as by . the present practice, the attendance of the Judges cannot be obtained during more than half of the Session. Till of late years Parliament always assembled before Christmas, either in October or No vember, and was prorogued before Midsummer. It is true that was in times when money, when supplies were more urgently required, than in these piping times of peace. But what Ministers in those days could do to suit their own political wants, surely ought not to be discontinued to the prejudice of the public service. We are almost ashamed to advert to the true, but childish schoolboy kind of reason for this change. That reason evidently is a desire to put off the evil day, and not to encounter trouble and labour till the very latest hour to which it can be postponed. That such a mode of reasoning should influence Statesmen would be indeed extraordinary, if hourly experience did not convince us that " men are but children of a larger growth," and that the high notions which we attach to tne higher stations of life usually end but in a confir mation of the truth of the maxim " quam parva sapi entia regitur mundus." Though the present Ministers must be pretty well convinced of the inconvenience and inexpediency of the practice, it is but fair to admit that they of all men have the least personal motive to deviate from it. To them the early meeting of Parliament, and the chance of a dog-day sitting, present but a choice of evils. Their political existence hangs upon so slight a thread, that it may be considered both by them selves and their dependents as an act of unpardonable rashness to run the risk of accelerating a fate which is in hourly danger of overtaking them. As an ar gumentunz ad komines, then, the Foint we are press ing may be out of place as regards them. Yet if there are among them any who are influened by higher than mere personal motives, it is next to impossible but that they must see the annual inconvenience which has now for some time past occurred by the late meeting and late sitting of Parliament, 'and the earnest call, therefore, there is upon them to remedy, and not perpetuate, the nuisance. We shall be told, perhaps, of the hardship of bringing the Scotch and Irish Members, and even the English country gentlemen, to town before Christmas. As a valid excuse for postponing and neglecting the important affairs of the nation, this excuse is beneath con tempi:. An officer may as well plead the inconvenience of joining his regiment, as a Member of Parliament expect to be excused, from personal reasons, for neg lecting his duties. We are aware of the advantage of gentlemen residing upon their estates. We are aware, too, of the inconvenience to certain persons of encoun tering the expense of a London life who have scarcely the means of living anywhere. But the time for assem bling Parliament cannot be regulated to meet the con venience of country gentlemen on the one hand, or the necessities of the joints of the tail on the other. The experience of the last session, especially its hur ried and unsatisfactory conclusion, show, if any thing can show, the imperious necessity of an altered prac tice. Yet, with such recent overwhelming and unan swerable experience before our eyes, we see no chance for the present of those who ought to be influenced by it, paying it time least attention.—Morning Herald. EIGHT PERSDNS KILLED.—A private letter from the vicinity of St Petcrsburgh, dated Peterhoff, Sept. 22 (N. S.), received in town yesterday, gives the following : " A most fiendish act was committed a few days ago, which has excited the utmost indignation and sorrow in the breasts of the neighbours. An individual who kept an hotel, finding that all his exertions were attended with ill-success, resolved to dispose of his business. He soon found a purchaser at the low terms which the declining state of his trade induced him to offer it. His successor found that much better fortune at tended him, and the hotel soon became one of the most pros perous in the neighbourhood. The former proprietor, on hearing of the circumstance, felt much chagrined, and went to his successor, and expressed a wish to be re-instated in the business. This unreasonable request was of course refused, and he left the house in great dudgeon. In passing through the kitchen, however, he had the malignity to throw into a saucepan of vegetables a quantity of arsenic, and eight indi viduals, who were in the habit of frequenting the house, died from the effects of the poison. It is hardly possible to ima gine the sensation which this monstrous and inhuman act has occasioned." FATAL ACCIDENT. About five o'clock on Thursday afternoon the neighbourhood of Vale-place, Ham_ mersmith, was thrown into a state of the utmost consternation and alarm by a most terrific explosion, which, on examinatien, was found to have proceeded from a small room at the rear of the premises of Messrs. Lee, the extensive florists and nursery men, opposite Vale-place. Numbers of persons immediately proceeded to the spot, where it was found that the room in question was one complete blaze of fire. The men belonging to the establishment instantly rendered every assistance, and by means of water, procured from a large pond on the grounds, the flames were ultimately got under, but not until the son of the shopman, a young lad named Jones, was so dreadfully in jured, that it was found requisite to remove him to St. George's Hospital, where he expired about twelve o'clock the same night. The extraordinary dryness and great heat of the weather during the last three weeks begins to create no little anxiety for the indigo crop, notwithstanding a few favourable reports received last week from particular factories. We have a doleful letter before us, received yesterday, from Com mercolly, from which we make the following extract :—" Our indigo prospects are much altered for the worse ; indeed. I never experienced such weather. The plant is not only stunted by the drought, but completely burnt up, grass and all. We have had one shower only at a single factory in the concern during the last six weeks ; the last sowings are conse quently a failure. I believe this state of things is pretty ge neral about here." From Moorshedabad the accounts are still worse. From Kishnagur they write, that some of the planters have not even a fourth of their sowings in the ground, and that in many cases the seed has failed for want of rain. In Purneagh, too, they are crying out. On the other hand, the letters from Rungpore report the prospects there very brilliant, and the planters in Dacca also expect to do very well, the Chota bursaat having set in. But the good pros pects in these two districts will go but little way to compensate for any considerable failure in such a district as Kishnagur alone.—Calcutta Courier, May 16. We learn from Angers that, on repairing the walls of a gallery which leads from the Conciergerie to the apart ment of the Prefet, a discovery has been made which may tend to elucidate the history of the ancient Benedictines of that town. On clearing the wall, some fragments of ancient Go thic sculpture were disclosed, and curiosity leading on to fur ther searches, a magnificent range of arcades, of the moresque style, were apparent. They are composed, as far as it is yet possible to judge, of six arches, resembling mortuary chapels. Each of these recesses is sustained on one side by twelve co lumns, placed in two parallel lines, and, on the other, by a plain pilaster, surmounted by an elegant frieze. The capi tals of the columns are of different designs, and several of them rival the Corinthian in richness, and in delicacy of workmanship. These six arcades are followed by four others, upon a larger scale, and also supported by co lumns. They are extremely rich in symbolical sculpture. That of the middle, which is the largest, is filled with griffins, fishes, reptiles, and human figures, more or less artfully gro tesque. Some erudite persons affirm that the signs of the zodiac are meant to be represented. The arch adjoining re presents the heavenly abodes. Several groups of archangels, angels, and cherubims, are worthy of being studied. The ' third division is dedicated to warriors, whose arms and costume seem to be of the 10th century. The last appears to have been devoted to the useful arts, and represents numerous workmen engaged in their respective labours. Measures are being taken to preserve these truly interesting remains of the early ages.—Galignani's Messenger. At a recent auction sale, not many miles from Salem, the knight of the ivory-headed hammer was provok ingly annoyed by the incessant and ludicrous bids of a fellow whose sole object seemed to be to make sport for the buyers, rather than himself to buy. After enduring the fellow's im pertinence for some time, old Going-going-gone peremptorily ordered him to be "gone" from the auction-room. The stub born animal, instead of obeying, set himself deliberately " to argufy the topic" with our knock -down friend, and inquired if he had not an Indisputable right to stay as long as he chose in a public auction-room? Enraged beyond endurance, he of the hammer, looking round the room f or a c h am pi on t o avenge huge dimensions, a very monarch in strength, and cried out, " AfL..._.ch, what I g i ve you to put this fellow uponbipedhiswrong a of upon the insultin g s i nner, fi xed h i s eyes out ?" " I takee one fife dollar bill." " Done, gone; do it • and you shall have it." Assuming the ferocious—knitting his brows—spreading his nostrils like a lion's —and putting on the wolf all over his head and shoulders, old M—ch strode up to the aggressor, and seizing the terrified wretch by the collar, said to him in a thundering whisper that was heard all over the room, " My good Erin, you go out wid me, I give you haf de mining." " Done, done," says the fellow. " H urra h 1 h urra h 1" cacchinated the delighted audience. The auctioneer himself had the good sense to join in the laugh, and coolly forked out the V.—Salem United States Gazette. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. A tall gaunt figure, named Alexander Corbet Sheridan, was charged by Mrs. Lorton, a milk and butter seller, under the following circumstances :—The complainant has been, fiorn a really obliging disposition, in the habit of keep ing her shop open on a Sunday morning, and the defendant, who lives in the same neighbourhood, never has given her a turn except on the Sabbath, notwithstanding which she always has treated him as well as if he ordered his blue and white every morning from her cattle. On Sunday morning last he called for a dab of butter, and the complainant served him, without, howeyer, looking particularly at the article, with which, as the workmen next door had been get ting down an old house, a little lime and dust happened to mix. The defendant went to his lodging, but in very quick time, and in a very unbecoming spirit returned, threw the dab down on the counter, swore that she was herself the old cow it came from, damned her, and departed. She philo sophically made allowance for the disappointment, carefully scraped off the offensive matter, and clapped the dairy stamp upon the butter, so that it looked as fresh and clear as if it never had been handled, and then took it over her self to her angry customer. " Who are you ?" said he, and without waiting for an answer cushioned his foot behind her so completely as to pocket her head is a tub, which was on the floor for the reception of the various disagreeable superfluities of the family. The LORD MAYOR—You don't appear to have sustained any damage, and you look quite good hnmoured upon the subject. Had you not better make it up, and I dare say he will be a better customer ? Complainant—lf he had kicked me any where but where he did, I wouldn't care so much, but (approaching the Lord Mayor) I do assure your Lordship that he left a mark as black and as big as your hat upon me. Defendant—Please you, my Lord, I'll be on my oath that I never touched her. I certainly told her to quit my apartment, and in going out she fell over the tub. The LORD MAYOR-It was very unmanly in you to frighten her. The defendant declared that the complainant gave him butter that would have poisoned the devil if he had eaten it. Instead of scraping off the lime, she had mixed it up, so that when he cut the butter it sounded as gritty as a piece of sandpaper : there was, in fact, streaks of lime through it. The LORD MAYOR told the complainant that streaky bacon was very good , but he never heard any com pli men t paid to streaky butter, and he thought the mixture of the lime and dust very untradeswoman-like. ___ Complainant--The butter was perfectly good, but he bears a grudge against me, and wants to persuade people that I had it out of the fire at London-bridge. Defendant—l'd as soon eat arsenic as lime ; besides, if your Lordship saw the milk she gives ! The moment my cat sees a drop of it, she puts up her back and spits as if a strange dog walked in. It was only the other day a fellow lodger put a poultice of it on his bad leg, and it festered him so, that he wanted not to wait for a surgeon, but asked me to cut it off with a hatchet. Complainant—l defy you to prove it. It's well known that we never use anythiny but good spring water. Defendant—Why; you'll say, by-and-by, that you make your cream without the assistance of an old shaving brush, when I'll be on my oath that some of what you wash your hands with in the morning goes into the stomachs of people in the evening, with a good froth upon it. The LORD MAYOR—She does not look as if she was a customer of her own, although you do, if what you say is correct. Defendant—You arc right, my Lord ; until I left off her milk, I used to have a regular wash inside as well as out, but since I've been drawing my milk from a proper tit, I'm less subject to the wind. The LORD MAYOR (to the complainant)—Have you any witnesses to the assault ? Complainant—None, my Lord, excepting this.—(Putting her hand upon the part which she said was abused.) The LORD MAYOR—That's a witness I can't examine in this case. Defendant.—lt would be a false witness, and I have two that will report the truth. Two persons then stated that the complainant was so terrified at the appearance and manner of the defendant, that she fell rather by the wind of his foot than the kick of it ; and the Lord Mayor effected a reconciliation, by a promise of custom on the part of the gentleman, upon con dition that the lady would, in future, allow a cow to act a part in her dairy. G UILDHAL L. A lad, named Charles Carsey, was brought before Mr. Alderman BROWN, charged with stealing 161. 10s., the property of Mr. Evans, of the Hatchet Winevaults in Little Trinity-lane. The prisoner made no defence, and was com mitted for trial. A young woman, named Jane Ann Heath, in the em ploy of Mr. Bord, of Watling-street, staymaker, was charged with purloining three pair of stays, his property, value 15s. Two shopmen from Mr. Fleming's, in New gate•street, identified the prisoner, as having pledged the ar ticles on the 15th and 22d of July, for ss. The prisoner cried, and said she had purchased one pair, and as to the others, she was very sorry if she had stolen them. The prisoner was committed. BO W-STREET. Thomas Perry, a young man of very respectable appear ance, was charged with embezzling several large sums of money, received by him on account of his employer. The prisoner, who declined saying anything in answer to the charge, was remanded until Tuesday. Q UEEN- S Q U ARE. Mr. Edward Aciants, of Blenheim-mews, Bond-street, appeared at this office to answer an information laid against the driver of a post-chaise belonging to him, for plying for hire at Knightsbridge, contrary to the 22d section of the Hackney Coach Act. The case was proved (after a long crose-examination by the solicitor of the defendant) by Digby, the well-known informer, who, upon this occasion, condescended to act as the witness of Byers. Mr. Adams said, in defence, that this was a most im portant question to proprietors of post-chaises in general. All respectable post-masters were in the habit of allowing their servants to take up fares on their return from a job. Mr. Hosturis—l am sorry that you and the others have connived at the system. It is contrary to the Act of Par liament. Mr. Adams was then fined in the mitigated penalty of 20s. and costs, it being intimated to him that he might pro ceed against his servant, the latter being the actual offender. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. Mary Johnson, a buxom tailoress, brought David, her husband, before the bench, for having well " basted" her on Tuesday. The complainant, whose voluble faculties ap peared to be in full vigour, asserted that she was one of the best behaved, hardest-working, and softest-spoken wives in the parish, but though her help-mate had the full benefit of her manifold merits, he appreciated them so indifferently that the " best of wives " was often treated to a taste of the marital cudgel. To put a stop to his activity in this depart ment of conjugal business, she took out the present warrant. The husband, who was the beau ideal of a hen-pecked tailor, with a rueful look, declared that his wife had en tirely mis-stated the matter, for, in place of the ill-usage coming from him, it had all proceeded from her. " Only call in the apprentice," said the husband, "and ask him if if my wife hasn't often said I was the best husband in the world, for she had made me sit on the shopboard seven weeks at a stretch, and never let me stir out. This last rumpus recurred because my fellow-workman's wife called upon me to borrow a velvet collar." Wife—A velvet collar, you wretch ; Yes, I know what she called for, the hussy ; but I'll let her know, if she wants velvet collars, she sha'nt come to my house for them. Husband—Your Worship, my wife is given up to for tune-tellers. I'm the victim of their predictions. Ever since the fortune-teller told my wife that she'd never be a lady until a dark man, pitted with the small pox, made her one, she's always been talking to me about divorce and separation. However, let her only say she'll give up gin, and I know we shall be comfortable again. Wife—lt's false ; I never drink gin. Husband—N. o, o, you'v e t a k en to rum l ate l y. Your Wor ship, my wife is acquainted with several women, and they are together every day, and all their talk is about rum and gin, and who is to stand the next quartern. The BENCH decided that the warrant should stand open for a day or two, in order to give the parties time to cool. THAMES-OFFICE. Mrs. Askell, the wife of Richard Askell, a beer-shop keeper, of No. 52, Ratcliffe-highway, appeared before Mr. CLARKsoN and Mr. BRODARIP, to answer an information preferred against h er h us b an d b y S tap l es, t h e common in former, for not h av i ng hi s Ch r i st i an an d surname legibly painted over his door. Mr. Pelham, the attorney, attended for Askell. Matthew Hale, the old common informer, stated in his usual drawling tone, that he went into Askell's house on the 26th of September, and told him of the surcunistance of his not having his name over the door, and called for some beer. The defendant admitted the omission, and said he would get his painter to do it, and since the information was laid the defendant's name had been painted over the door. Witness told him of it a great many times before that, and Askell said, " Don't you lay an information against me, and I'll make it all right." Mr. Pelham—You went there and demanded .ss. Hale—No ; mister, I do'int do that. Mr. BRODERIP—Do you remember being in Court at the Middlesex Sessions two years and a half ago ? Hale— Why, yes ; about that time, more or less. Mr. BRODERIP—Yes ; and do you recollect what the Chairman said to you about your conduct ? Hale—Oh, I yes ; he said something ; that I was a common informer, and got money out of people ; but your Worship maunt believe all you hear, and the Jury, you know_ Mr. BRODERIP knew all about it, and addressing his brother Magistrate, said it was his duty to tell him that ho would not believe Hale upon his oath. He had been in the habit of extorting money from tradesmen. Hale—l deny it. Mr. BRODERIP—I dare say you do. Hale—l am as good a man as you. I deny it. Mr. BRODERIP—I dare say you do. Come, Sir, give me none of your insolence. Your tricks are notorious. You have been detected in this Office compounding cases and receiving money. _ Hale—l have given evidence before Mr. Barnie (Sir R. Birnie), Mr. Twaiford (Twyford), and the most respecta blest Magistrates ; and you must take my evidence, Mr, Brarderip. Mr. BRODERIF-I am not to be bullied by a fellow like you. I won't hear any more. Hale here thrust himself forward in an impudent man ner, and said, " It's a public place for any one to speak. will speak, and you cant help yourself neither." M. BRODERIP—Do you hear this man ? I expected his abuse ; I have had it before. From an informer he has become an informer's witness, and his practices are well known to every body here. Deverell, the beadle of Shadwell, said that Hale had been going about the district for some time, extorting money from tradesmen, by threatening them with infor mations. A person present here said that Hale was known by the name of " Old Carkeses," from his manner of pronouncing the word casks. Mr. Pelham asked Hale if he had not called on Askell and demanded ss. of him ? Hale—No, I never did ; who says I did ? Mr.Pelham—Take care, I have witnesses here to prove it. Hale—l'll swear before the Bible, God, and all the churches in England, and everything else, that I never did, there now.—(Here he thumped his fist on the rail.) Mr. BRODERIP—I dare say you will swear it ; you may go about your business. Mr. CI.ARKSON--4 don't know this person myself, but from what my colleague says, I shall not convict. Hale—l don't care, you may do your worst, I'll make you suffer for this, if I don't me.—[Here the officers forced him out of the justice-room.] TERRIBLE EXPLOSION AT THE SOUTH METROPOLITAN GAS WORKS. A few minutes before six o'clock yesterday evening, the inhabitants of the Old Kent-road, and throughout more than two miles of the surrounding district, were amazed and alarmed at seeing an immense sheet of flame shoot across the sky, which was instantly followed by an explo sion as loud as the simultaneous discharge of a park of ar tillery, and a vibration of the earth similar to that pro duced by . the shock of an earthquake. It was immediately suspected that some dreadful accident had occurred at the South Metropolitan Gas Works, and the scene of destruc tion that presented itself on the premises of this establish ment confirmed the apprehension. From the statement of a number of spectators, it appeared, that precisely at ten minutes before six a tremendous body of flame shot up wards from the purifying or retort house, next the Surrey Canal, lifting, to the height of at least eighty feet, the convex iron roof, and, with a deafening explosion, scat tering around to a great distance stones, planks, and pieces of iron. A great portion of the roof, and large masses of the building, were blown to the other side of the canal, and the circular wall was completely battered asunder. Immediately a body of police were sent for, and a number of workmen rushed amongst the ruins, to ascertain the amount of the injury. They had not proceeded far in their examination, when they found beneath a heap of rubbish two men, who were on duty at the time of the accident. One was but little injured, but the other, a watchman, was so bruised and mutilated, that the chance of his surviving is very slight. Some others are missing, who it is too probable have found a grave in the ruins. In the first confusion it was impos sible to find out the cause of the accident. The general belief in the immediate neighbourhood was, that some un skilful person had entered the reservoir with a lighted candle, and thus set fire to a quantity of liberated gas, which had escaped during some experiments that were made a short time previously with a view to improve the quality of the gas, which it seems had been in some instances complained of. It was also stated, that some experienced men had been dismissed a few days before, and their places supplied by some less practised hands at lower wages ; and as the explosion was by the friends of the former attributed to the inexperience of the new comers, a feeling quite the reverse of sympathy was expressed by several in the crowd for the loss that the proprietors must suffer. As many of the workmen as could be set to that work were engaged to turn off the remaining gas from all the pipes connected with the reservoir where the accident occured, that a second explosion might not take place. A body of policemen were stationed at the avenue and gates to prevent the entrance of all persons not permitted to pass by the superintendents. Such was the violence of the shock, that though the pre mises are half a furlong from the road, the windows in seve ral houses were broken, and heavy articles of furniture were forced from their places. (ANOTHER ACCOUNT.) Yesterday evening, about half-past 5 o'clock, a fearful explosion took place at the South Metropolitan Gas Works, on the bank of the Surrey Canal, Old Kent-road, arising from the ignition of gas. It appears that soon after the lamps in the district suppli e d b y t h e C ompany were lighted, a stranger applied at the works and informed a labourer in attendance that great difficulty was experienced by the consumers in the neighbourhood in obtaining a proper sup ply of gas. The labourer, accompanied by the stranger, immediately repaired to the purifying-house to ascertain the cause, and it was found that an escape of gas had taken place. A light having been imprudently taken into the in terior of the building, the gas ignited, and a most fearful explosion instantly took place, which blew the roof of the house into the air, and forced the walls down. The frag ments of the purifying-house, and particularly of the roof, were scattered in all directions, many pieces falling a quarter of a mile from the spot. The two men, the labourer and the stranger, were severely injured, and were thrown to a considerable distance from the house where the ex plosion took place. When they were found, their clothes were reduced to a cinder, and their bodies and faces frightfully burnt. They were conveyed to the hospital, and we hear that the labourer, who was employed as a night watchman on the premises, was not expected to survive many hours. It appears that there had been a large escape of gas into the purifying-room, and that the labourer having a light with his companion, caused it to explode. Another man who is missing was supposed to have been near the spot. The purifying apartment of the gas-works was of great ex tent, and was covered with an iron roof manufactured by Messrs. Brunton, of the Commercial-road East. It was very heavy, and attached to the walls by immense iron beams and girders, Which offered great resistance to the ex plosive force of the hydrogen gas, and caused a concussion which was heard in all parts of the metropolis. The roof was so completely shattered by the explosion that only very small portions are to be seen lying about. When the gas ignited the flash or flame was seen but for a few seconds only, at a great distance ; and the concussion of the air was so great, that it was felt at Greenwich, Blackheath, Step ney, Shadwell, and even at Kensington. In the city the explosion was also distinctly heard, and the impression on the minds of the citizens was, that the gunpowder-mills in Dartford had been blown up. In the neighbourhood of the Old Kent-road the terror of the inhabitants was very great ; doors were thrown open, shutters and bars torn from the shop windows, and the glass in the windows smashed in every direction. At the Shard Arms public house, nearly opposite the works, 20 or 30 squares of glass are broken in the front of the house, and the plates and dishes found their way from the dresser to the kitchen-door as if by magic. Several horses passing along the road took fright, but we have not heard of any material accident in consequence. The confusion and alarm were much increased by the want of the accustomed li.lhts on the roads, but such was th e activity displayed by the officers at the gas-works, who were employed by the directors to remedy the mischief, under the superintendence of Mr. Wilson, the clerk of the works, that by Woclock the roads and public places of resort were am ply supplied with the means of illumination. An alarm of fire was spread, and a number of engines belonging to the fire brigate were quickly on the spot, but there was happily no need of their services. A number of the police of the R division, under the direction of inspector Musgrove, at tended, and behaved in a most praiseworthy manner, in, keeping the crowd at a proper distance, assisting the work men, and allaying the fears of the people who assembled. For several hours after the explosion took place, a great number of persons left town for Dartford, where the powder mills are situated, believing, from the loud report which was heard when the explosion took place, that they had been blown up. The violence of the shock was cer tainly never exceeded in the metropolis, and there is not a single house within three miles of the works where it was not sensibly felt. In Lambeth it was for some time sup posed that one of the firework manufactories had exploded, and from the csrcumstance of its being well known that the pyrotechnists were actively employed in preparing fireworks for the ensuing sth of November, this report obtained ex tensive circulation, and the firework makers were besieged during the evening by their friends calling to ascertain if they and their factories were safe. An expedition has been made, by order of the Rus sian Government, into the northern provinces of the empire. It is stated to have discovered gold sand in the bed of the rivers Ussienskaja and Kaminki. AGNES GRAHAM. t o e n d se w qu it e b nc t e be of publicity a th bo e veu which has caused so much interest, one of the Magistrates con l n n ec c of the county of Surrey has addressed the following to Mr. Chambers, the Magistrate of Marlborough - s treet f unfortunate un givenate to young te Police-office, upon the subject : u on " The case of Agnes Graham, which was before yo the Tuesday last, having so much excited the attention of the public, I feel it my duty, in the absence of the Rev. Guill, who is now at Corfu, to trouble you with a f ew lines e in reply to that part of' the statement which relates to circumstances under which she left the frorkhouse at Egham' " Of the history of this girl previously to her being placed in the workhouse I know nothing more than that sl . m_ was brought into the parish by the lady whose name sne has used, with whom she lived for some years. She then from some cause or other, of which I am not aware, beca me _ reduced to the state of great destitution in which s he w,a: found, as she correctly states, by the Rev. Mr. Guill, represented her situation to me, and I gave directions 122:. her removal into the workhouse, instructing the parish OM .. proceedi n g fom aie,aa cars at the same time to make inquiries respecting her se i t e tlement and friends. In this inquiry the officers failed ;tn only information they were able to procure being from the lady with whom she resided, who stated that the girl, to gether with a twin brother, name Arthur Graham, of who m you have not yet heard, were the children of an upper ser; vent and companion of hers, who had gone abroad, and via then dead. " The girl continued in the workhouse, and after som e time a situation was found for her in the family of a trades: letter man in an adjoining parish, in which service she rernainqi five or six months, and conduct e d h erse lf well. She left that place, as she stated, to better herself, but not inn diately getting a situation, she came back to Egham, an u was' taken into the house o f th e ass i s t an t o verseer, it' whose family she remained a few months, for the pur pose of being instructed in the duties of a servant, and f' the commencement of the Union, in September, 1835, s' ll was replaced in the workhouse at Egham, in which she continued assisting in the household work until about the month of March last. It appears that she conducted her' self properly while there, and was, as the people io the house describe her, a good girl to work, until she formed 116 intimacy with a girl of bad character, who had recently come an inmate of the workhouse, with whom she secretly went away on a Sunday afternoon. " The case baying been r e p or t e d t o th e G uar dians, they directed, that as the girl was so young and in such bad e n°l i , pany, a look out should be k e pt f or h er . an d that found, she should be brought b ac k. Af ter - five days air sense, being seen in the neighbourhood of Egbam, in noi pany with the same girl, they w ere sen t f or f rom the work house, brought back and removed, b u t i n conseq uence its being supposed that Graham h a d b een i n d uce d to lea ve the house by the other girl, no punishment was inflicted upon her for misbehaviour, and on her promising to conduct he r " self better in future, she was told by one of the guardians visiting the workhouse, that if s h e b e h ave d we ll evlllg 3t tempt would be made to procure her a situation. "She remained in the workhouse a few weeks, when 416 again ran away on an eveni ng w ith anot h er g i r l o f t he mos t abandoned character, and had not been heard of until the reports in the Papers. "That the girls were told that in consequence of th e Poor Law Bill, they must leave the workhouse, or be P ut to hard labour and live on bread and water, is not true. They were, in fact, all of them put into the workhouse a fter the union commenced. " After the admission of the girls before alluded to, th e conduct of them all was extremely riotous and i m proper so much so, that th e o ld er i nma t es o f t h e H ouse were ver much annoyed by them, and were continually making corn" plaints. " It was with the greatest difficulty that the then rnas te A r of the workhouse could exercise any control over them, an: that they were at that ti me cer t a i n l y to ld t h at if they s" misconducted themselves, they would be placed in confin e ' ment and fed on bread and water, and if that had not the desired effect, they would be sent to the treadmill, but ne t otherwise. " It appears that Graham had always been treated 1 / 41 . 1 i kindness, and I must a dd, seems to h ave b e h ave d we ll on her connection with the girls with whom she went away (Signed) " T. R.
